+    <p>
+    Vixie Cron is a command scheduler with extended syntax over cron.

+  <description>
+    <p>
+    During an internal audit, Raphael Marichez of the Gentoo Linux Security
+    Team found that Vixie Cron has weak permissions set on Gentoo, allowing
+    for a local user to create hard links to system and users cron files,
+    while a st_nlink check in database.c will generate a superfluous error.
+    </p>
+  </description>
+  <impact type="low">
+    <p>
+    Depending on the partitioning scheme and the "cron" group membership, a
+    malicious local user can create hard links to system or users cron
+    files that will trigger the st_link safety check and prevent the
+    targeted cron file from being run from the next restart or database
+    reload.
+    </p>
+  </impact>
+  <workaround>
+    <p>
+    There is no known workaround at this time.
+    </p>
+  </workaround>
+  <resolution>
+    <p>
+    All Vixie Cron users should upgrade to the latest version:
+    </p>
+    <code>
+    # emerge --sync
+    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=sys-process/vixie-cron-4.1-r10"</code>
